About Seed Savers-Lily

Product Description "An immediate and enduringly popular addition to personal, family, school and community library collections for young readers ages 8-12."--Midwest Book Review It's definitely not what she had in mind for summer vacation. When her friends disappear under mysterious circumstances, thirteen-year-old Lily sets out to discover more about the secret organization with which they were involved. Her investigation unearths a disturbing secret from her own past, unsettling her world even more. In the meantime, Lily makes a new friend and falls for a mysterious young man even as she remains unsure about whom to trust. As her world crashes down around her, Lily struggles to decide what to do next. A suspenseful and reflective book with themes of self-empowerment, trust, acceptance of diversity, gardening, and politics. "In Lily, young people continue to secretly grow vegetables, an illegal act in their world. They form diverse friendships across ethnic lines as they search for truth behind unanswered questions. Lily encourages readers to bravely work for a better world!"--Joyce Yoder, middle school teacher and principal Review "Lily is a delightful read that continues the Seed Savers series. I love how the futuristic world is grounded in reality. The character development keeps progressing over each book. Smith has created an intriguing read that has me on the edge of my seat for each book."--Kandi J. Wyatt, author of The Dragon Courage series "Rather than getting Treasure all over again, a common fault in sequels in general, Lily is a book all its own and full of secrets, secrets, and more secrets. Smith succeeds again in writing a fantastic and educational adventure . . . Seed Savers is about using your brain, questioning the world around you, becoming a better person, and making the world a better place."--Andi Klemm, Anakalian Whims "This series fills the void for younger-audience dystopians. Even so, older readers will love it too!" --Gabs, My Full Bookshelf Reviews "Lily is a well-written dystopian book with a great story."--Erik Weibel, This Kid Reviews Books From the Back Cover IMAGINE A FUTURE WHERE GROWING FOOD IS A CRIME In a future where gardening is illegal and corporations decide what people eat, thirteen-year-old Lily defies the status quo by planting the banned seeds entrusted to her by friends--friends who have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. In this second book of the Seed Savers series, Lily sets out to discover what happened to her missing friends, unearthing a disturbing secret from her own past. "Lily encourages readers to bravely work for a better world." --Joyce Yoder, former educator, Salem-Keizer Schools "The language read smoothly, naturally, with beautiful word pictures and a very nice pace. Overall, I thought the artistry was remarkable. I'm eager to read book three!" --Michelle Isenhoff, teen & tween author "Seed Savers is about using your brain, questioning the world around you, becoming a better person, and making the world a better place." --Andi Klemm, Anakalian Whims blog
